"Shi'er, what's wrong with you?"

Bai Jingqiu came to Cultivation Room to find Lan Shi'er to participate in the upcoming Island Lord Handover Ceremony. Halfway through, he saw Lan Shi'er with tears in his eyes and he didn't know what he was cursing.

"It's nothing, I just miss my mother."

Lan Shi'er did not tell Bai Jingqiu about the beating.

She knew Aunt Bai and how much Aunt Bai pampered her. If she knew that she had been beaten violently for two months, Jiang Ping An would definitely end up miserable.

Although she hates Jiang Ping An's harsh behavior, after all, she wants to become stronger.

Wait until the handover ceremony is over and just let Jiang Ping An go. There is no need to retaliate.

Bai Jingqiu rubbed Lan Shi'er's head and said gently, "Be happy. If your mother is still here, she doesn't want to see Shi'er cry."

Lan Shi'er wiped his tears and said, "Aunt Bai, the handover ceremony is about to begin. I'm going to change my clothes."

"Don't forget what I told you. During the handover ceremony, try not to speak. That old guy Lan FengCheng will definitely cause trouble for you. Leave it to me to deal with it then."

Bai Jingqiu was worried that something would happen during the handover ceremony and warned Lan Shi'er again.

"Don't worry, Aunt Bai and Shi'er understand."

Lan Shi'er was appointed as the owner of Kunpeng Island by the superiors, and Former Island Lord Lan FengCheng was very dissatisfied with this, but this was the decision of the superiors, and Lan FengCheng was powerless to change it.

If Lan FengCheng still wants to control the resources near Kunpeng Island Sea Territory, it is necessary to stabilize the forces of all parties in Kunpeng Island.

There are various forces within even a small Lineage, let alone an area as large as Kunpeng Island.

If you want to master Kunpeng Island, you don't just need to be appointed as the island owner. You also need all the forces to realize that you must have the right to speak and rule. Only in this way can all the forces see that you can bring benefits, and then they will really help you.

As long as Lan FengCheng is not stupid, he will definitely do something during the handover ceremony to defeat Lan Shi'er and suppress him, so that other forces can see that Lan Shi'er is a waste and not worthy of assistance.

The game of power exists everywhere, but in a world where force is respected, rights are more linked to force.

The location of the Kunpeng Island handover ceremony is in the square next to Kunpeng Island Central Residence.

This square is huge and can accommodate many people. On the floor tile in the center, there is a huge Kunpeng carved on it.

Kunpeng Island is named after Kunpeng. The entire island is transformed by the dead Kunpeng. The changes of time have turned Kunpeng into an island.

Most of the creatures living here have Kunpeng as their totem.

At this moment, Kunpeng Plaza was buzzing with people, and a large number of people gathered to watch the handover ceremony.

"I heard that the new island owner is very beautiful. She is a fourteen-year-old girl, and she is also the biological daughter of Lord Azure King."

"Who in the right mind would leave their biological daughter in such a remote place? I heard that this is the child Azure King accidentally gave birth to to an ordinary woman. Talent is extremely ordinary."

"Let this kind of people lead us Kunpeng Island, we Kunpeng Island will decline sooner or later."

I don't know if some people intentionally say Talent loudly with the background when talking about Lan Shi'er.

This has caused many people to lose some favor towards this girl who is young and has poor Talent.

On the high platform in front of the square, there are many God-level Experts sitting. These God-level Experts are the leaders of all parties in Kunpeng Island. They occupy the vast majority of Kunpeng Island's resources.

Using the metaphor of a mortal country, these people are actually local gentry, and the island owners are the officials responsible for management.

Normally, they, the gentry, can pay taxes and money. When necessary, the island owner and the forces above will provide help.

In front of these God-level Expert, there was a man wearing luxurious clothes, talking and laughing with them.

And this man is none other than Kunpeng Island Former Island Lord, Lan FengCheng.

Lan FengCheng enthusiastically communicates with this group of God-level Expert in order to maintain a good relationship with each other.

In this way, even if he steps down, he can still control Kunpeng Island.

Suddenly, Lan FengCheng noticed that many God-level Expert looked sideways.

He noticed something and looked sideways.

Two women came out of the Island Lord Residence mansion, one was mature and beautiful, the other was young and cute.

The two people were wearing beautiful clothes, coupled with their innate looks and noble temperament, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Kunpeng Plaza suddenly became much quieter.

Seeing these two women, a shadow flashed in Lan FengCheng's eyes.

Originally, he was very free and comfortable in Kunpeng Island, but some time ago, a fourteen-year-old girl suddenly came to take over his position.

Lan FengCheng also has the surname Lan, but he is a side branch.

In terms of seniority, Lan Shi'er is his ancestor.

Lan FengCheng quickly suppressed the emotions in his heart, greeted the two with a smile, and held today's handover ceremony.

The handover ceremony cannot be stopped, but as long as it can continue to control Kunpeng Island and continue to obtain resources, it won't be a problem.

Under the dance of the dancers and the music of the musicians, the ceremony was completed peacefully.

Lan Shi'er took over Command Token, the core of Kunpeng Island, and sat on the main seat.

Lan FengCheng stood aside, turned to face the situation of God-level Expert and Kunpeng Island from all forces, and said loudly:

"Congratulations to Lan Shi'er, who has become Kunpeng Island Nineteenth Island Lord. As the daughter of Master Azure King, Lan Shi'er will definitely be an outstanding Talent, with extraordinary fighting power, and can lead our Kunpeng Island to develop better."

"I have a young son, who happens to be fourteen today, so I will let my incompetent young son compete with Little Island Lord here, so that everyone can see the strength of Little Island Lord!"

"Okay!"

Before Lan FengCheng finished speaking, someone started to applaud, and these cheers moved all Kunpeng Island residents present.

Obviously, this is someone who has been arranged by Lan FengCheng a long time ago, just to drive public opinion and prevent the other party from coming to power.

Bai Jingqiu A cold light flashed in his eyes, what was supposed to come had come.

She immediately said loudly, "Little Island Lord just handed over the handover today. There are still many things to do, so it is not appropriate to compete. We will talk about it later. Now we will go back to the house to hold a banquet."

Lan Shi'er must not be embarrassed in front of the entire Kunpeng Island situation. In this world where strength determines everything, once he is embarrassed in public, it will affect the public opinion on the entire island, thus affecting the cooperation with all parties with Kunpeng Island.

Even if there is a real competition, it will have to wait until there are fewer people.

Bai Jingqiu is leaving with Lan Shi'er.

Suddenly, a fourteen-year-old boy walked out of the crowd, pointed his sword at Lan Shi'er, and shouted loudly, "I, Lan QiMing, ask the island owner for advice!"

Bai Jingqiu's face suddenly changed. She didn't expect that Lan FengCheng would let her son come out to challenge directly.

If Lan FengCheng himself said that he wanted to challenge Shi'er, he could still find reasons to refuse, but Lan FengCheng directly asked his fourteen-year-old son to speak out.

This makes Bai Jingqiu, a strong man who is God Realm, unable to speak.

Moreover, this Lan QiMing still challenges with a sword.

When a practitioner holds a weapon to challenge an opponent, it is equivalent to placing a sword on the opponent's neck. If he still refuses to fight at this time, it is equivalent to running away from the battle, which is no different from defeat.

In other words, Shi'er must now accept the challenge.

However, Shi'er's combat level is also average, and there is almost no chance of winning against Lan QiMing, who is well prepared.
